Brandon Robinson, commented: “We are honoured to be receiving this award from AIAC. This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team, whose commitment to innovation within the eVTOL space is the driving force behind our Cavolite X7, a hybrid eVTOL built for operational reality. We are proud to be driving sustainable innovation in Canadian aerospace and will continue pushing the boundaries of technology to deliver solutions that further advance the rapidly growing eVTOL sector.” #eVTOL #AAM #Innovation #SustainableAerospace #RegionalAirMobility #MadeInCanada

Why a Hybrid eVTOL? Brian Robinson, Horizon Aircraft's Co-Founder and Chief Engineer, discusses why a hybrid-electric design is the right choice today for advanced air mobility solutions. https://lnkd.in/g3GtyBfU The choice to go hybrid for regional aircraft and eVTOLs is clear: Battery technology isn’t yet equipped to handle long-distance flights, and relying solely on electric power means depending on charging infrastructure that may not always be available. Hybrid eVTOL leverage the strengths of both electric and traditional fuel sources, using electric power for efficient vertical takeoff and conventional power for sustained flight, offering the freedom to travel regionally without range anxiety. This design not only maximizes energy efficiency may also streamline certification by using established engine technology, focusing certification efforts on new components. ✈️ #HybridAircraft #AviationInnovation #SustainableTravel #AdvancedAirMobility #AdvancedAirMobility #eVTOL

Horizon Aircraft Appoints Phil Kelly as Senior Vice President Business Development -- Phil Kelly is a Harrier Jump Jet Pilot and Former Head of Aircraft Development for the UK Royal Navy and Royal Marines -- We are thrilled to announce that Phil Kelly has joined Horizon Aircraft as Senior Vice President of Business Development.

His career flying military fighter jets speaks for itself, and his personal experience of flying military VTOLs will be invaluable as we continue with the development and testing of our Cavorite X7 aircraft. Phil’s former roles as head of aircraft development in the UK Royal Navy and Royal Marines will help us to identify new opportunities around future collaboration and revenue generation.”   Phil Kelly commented on his new role: “Horizon Aircraft is unique. After a decade of developing, upgrading and introducing VTOL aircraft into service with the Royal Navy from F-35B to helicopters, I was looking to use my experience with an outstanding global leader in aerospace. I have found that in Horizon Aircraft, which has a truly innovative and technologically sound approach. The Cavorite X7 is an exceptional aircraft from concept and patented lift systems, through to operational use cases. It has no competitors in what it can offer – a hybrid eVTOL with high speed and long range capabilities. It will transform sectors from regional mobility to medical services at range. It is an exciting time to join the team at Horizon, as flight testing is well underway”   Stay tuned for more as we continue to expand our team and advance the potential of regional air mobility!   #eVTOL #Aerospace #Sustainability #Innovation #Aviation #RegionalAirMobility #BusinessDevelopment
